Title:
  Shortcut to launch UbuntuSoftwareCenter to install "foo" if you write
  "foo" in unity

Status in Unity:
  Incomplete
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  It's a bit of a shame that people that know Linux applications don't
  find them right away after they install stock Ubuntu, just because
  they were not included in the default install.

  Well, unity is supposed to be here to help us, right? It can even help
  you with shopping, so why couldn't it help you locate new installable
  programs?

  If I don't have The Gimp installed, and I type "gimp" in Unity,
  instead of just getting books with "gimp" titles, the first result
  should actually be an original icon of The Gimp, and if clicked, it
  should open Ubuntu Control Center and take you to the description of
  the package, so that you can decide to install it or not.
